    Hi @Roy Bipro Thank you for reaching out and the Microsoft's academic verification system does not currently recognize your institution's email domain and azure for Students still needs its own academic verification before the subscription can be activated.

    Azure for Students is available only to students who meet the following requirements:

    • You must affirm that you're age 18 or older and attend an accredited, degree-granting, two-year or four-year educational institution where you're a full-time student.
    • You must verify your academic status through your institution's email address.
    • This offer isn't available for use in a massive open online course (MOOC) or in other professional trainings from for-profit organizations.
    • This offer is limited to one Azure for Student subscription per eligible customer. It's nontransferable and can't be combined with any other offer, unless otherwise permitted by Microsoft.

    For detailed terms of use, see the Azure for Students offer page

    If your school doesn’t have a contract with Microsoft for Azure for Students, to have your college's email domain recognized, the college administration or IT department will need to take action.

    If you meet these requirements, the best bet is to create a support request, you can submit a (free) support ticket with our Azure subscription support team by creating an Azure support request and selecting Subscription Management as the issue type.

    Refer to this FAQ: How do I submit a support request if I can't sign in to the Azure portal?

    You can also contact customer service for your country or region.
